ID 4281736 - DoJ - NICTS - Supply and Delivery of Legal Subscription Titles
Notice Description
The Northern Ireland Courts and Tribunals Service, more specifically the Office of the Lady Chief Justice, has a primary role in supporting the work of the Judiciary, the efficient and effective functioning of the courts and the delivery of the administration of justice in Northern Ireland. One of the major support functions is providing a legal library and information service to all tiers of the Judiciary, legal support staff and court administrators. The Library and Information Service functions in a high profile and fast paced environment with a requirement to deliver 'at speed' and to 'pre-empt' knowledge needs where possible. Items may be required at short notice and delay in their receipt can effect delay in decision making, lead to greater financial cost and making incorrect or un-researched decisions leading to loss of confidence, criticism and reputational damage to the Judiciary. The Northern Ireland Courts and Tribunals Service (NICTS) is seeking to establish a contract for the supply and delivery of legal subscription titles in print and/or electronic format.

"description": "Please note that information relating to contractors engaged by the Northern Ireland Department of Justice, and associated bodies is not published in any publicly accessible forum or publication. This is to protect such contractors, whose security and safety could be threatened by dissident terrorist organisations still active in Northern Ireland if their details became known. This is consistent with Regulation 50(6)(a). . . The estimated contract value is a broad estimate only and includes additional quantum for unforeseen demand and to future proof for additional potential. There is no guarantee of any level of business under this contract. The estimate is not deemed to be a condition of contract nor a guarantee of minimum demand or uptake. No compensation will be payable to a contractor should the actual demand be less than that stated. The contractor's performance on this contract will be managed as per specification and regularly monitored. Contractors not delivering on contract requirements is a serious matter. It means the public purse is not getting what it is paying for. If a contractor fails to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance they will be given a specified time to improve. If, after the specified time, they still fail to reach satisfactory levels of contract performance, the matter will be escalated to senior management in Construction and Procurement Delivery for further action. If this occurs and their performance still does not improve to satisfactory levels within the specified period, it may be regarded as an act of grave professional misconduct and they may be issued with a notice of written warning and notice of unsatisfactory performance and this contract may be terminated. The issue of a notice of written warning and notice of unsatisfactory performance will result in the contractor being excluded from all procurement competitions being undertaken by Centres of Procurement Expertise on behalf of bodies covered by the Northern Ireland Procurement Policy for a period of up to 3 years from the date of issue of the notice..",
